okay, well... I am a membor of pitbull forum too - so I kept my wolfpuppy screan name so people from there will reconzie me here too.

How did I get into the breed. I have always been attracted to the bully breeds.

I study wild wolves, and wolves get a bad rap. I guess the first thing that attracted me to them was that they got a undeserved bad rap (just like wolves).

I meet my first pitbull (Mac's mom) when she was a baby. I loved her. After meeting her I knew that I had to have a pit someday. I ended up getting one of her puppies years later (Mac). I've done research on the breed and I ended up learning more about BYBs (gotta start somewhere). So now I do not support BYBs - but I don't regret getting Mac.

Well to sum it all up - I LOVE PITS! and will always have one (or a few someday, ). Bully breeds is just my kind of dog.

wolfpuppy, your story sounds just like how I got into the Breed! Our friend had a wonderful bitch named Diesel, we LOVED her, so when she got pregnant, we got one of her babies! Now I know about BYB's, but I don't regret Oscar one bit! I feel the same, I never want to be without some kind of Bully Breed again !

Purple, I do believe I've seen that picture before of the Bull Terrier - you must be from pitbullforum too?

And Malli - I'm so glad that I share something in common with someone - almost exactly!! Pretty cool!! It takes meeting a pitbull to fall in love with them. That is exactly what happend to my mother too...

When she first saw Mac she was so shooken with fear, and crying saying "I cannot believe you got a pitbull!" and now after something so simple as petting him she absolutely LOVES Mac. She now proudly tells people that Mac is her "Granddog" - When she came to visit me last week, she was like where is my Grandson! I wanna see him!! Too funny.

my parents were almost the same! They asked me why I'd want to own a dog like that, and were worried for me (I wasn't so hot on my boyfriend's idea to get a Pit at first either). Now, my mum is always telling me about different Pit Bulls shes met, and telling me stories about when she talks to other people about Oscar, she tells me I'm a "drill sargeant" with him (I'm very strict) and feels bad if he doesn't get to eat when their dog does. She also calls him her granddog, and he usually gets presents at Christmas.
